What is Baatcheet?

Inspired by the Hindi word for conversation or chit chat, Baatcheet is a series of fast-paced, energetic, and collaborative conversations about South Asian art and visual culture. The South Asian Art Collective’s Baatcheet brings together scholars, curators, students, visual and performance artists, collectors, art enthusiasts, and members of the bay area community for a series of short, multi-media presentations each with the common goal of inciting dynamic, public conversations about art and culture of South Asia.

South Asian Art Collective was formed with the goal of bringing together artists, art historians, collectors, and members of the bay area community for talks, lectures, and exchanges about diverse forms of South Asian art and culture. Inspired by the potential of collective thinking South Asian Art Collective connects art historians, curators, educators, and scholars at the Asian Art Museum, the San Jose Museum of Art, the University of California Berkeley, and Stanford University to create dynamic and innovative exchanges that build upon and expand existing programming and resources at each institution.
